NAME
   dce_msg_get_msg - Retrieve a DCE message from its ID

 SYNOPSIS

   #include <dce/dce_msg.h>

   unsigned char *dce_msg_get_msg( unsigned32 message,
                                   error_status_t *status );

 PARAMETERS

   Input

   message
          ID of message to be retrieved.

   Output

   status
          Returns the status code from this operation. The status code
          is a value that indicates whether the routine completed
          successfully and if not, why not.

 DESCRIPTION

   The dce_msg_get_msg() routine retrieves the text for a specified
   message (which is a 32-bit DCE message ID as described in
   dce_error_inq_text). The routine implicitly determines the correct
   message catalog in which to access the message, and opens it; the
   caller only has to call the routine.

   The routine first searches the appropriate message catalog for the
   message, and then (if it cannot find the catalog) searches the in-
   memory message table.  If the message cannot be found in either of
   these places, the routine returns a default string and fills in
   status with an error code.  This routine thus always returns a string,
   even if there is an error (except for msg_s_no_memory).

   The message, if found, is returned in allocated space to which the
   routine returns a pointer. The pointed-to space must be freed by the
   caller using free. If memory cannot be allocated, the routine returns
   NULL and fills in status with the msg_s_no_memory error code.

 ERROR CODES
